    Checklist

    Moving can be a trying experience, especially if not well planned. At Carey, we are committed to making your move as smooth as possible, so we have provided a moving checklist to help with your preparations.

    Preparation

    Carey’s relocation consultants can advise your family on every aspect of your move. Your relocation consultant will come to your home to explain the many services that Carey Moving & Storage offers, then perform a survey of everything in your home that will be moved, pointing things out along the way that can’t be moved, that may require special attention, or that must be prepared before the move by your or a third party. This survey allows the relocation consultant to provide you with an estimate of costs and various pricing options you may choose from. Once you have selected a mover, you will be asked to sign an order for service.

    Are you hiring a household goods mover or broker?

    A moving broker is not the same thing as a mover.
    • A moving company owns trucks and has staff that handles your move directly. Interstate movers must be registered with
      the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and have a U.S. DOT number.
    • A moving broker is an entity that arranges for the transportation of your goods, hiring an actual moving company to do
      the physical move. Moving brokers are sales teams that book your move and sell it to a moving company. They also must
      be registered with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. A broker does not assume responsibility for, and is not
      authorized to transport, your household goods. Brokers usually do not have moving trucks or professional movers, though
      some entities who are registered as brokers with FMCSA may have trucks and staff.
